Its actually more a 'feeling' the sound waves than hearing them... like an engine in the distance, or the base of some moron down the street who thinks its cool to resonant the whole street.
There are many reports on it but they don't know the source or the cause.. some say its the planet 'groaning' others say its radio waves from space...
Many reports on it on the web... here is a good one
'Hum' keeps Suffolk town awakehttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7571683.stm
Problem is though some feel 'better' with the lack of sleep, its temporary... if you are deprived of too many days without proper REM sleep it will cause issues...
I have it here in Vegas a lot... you really notice it when it suddenly stops... and some nights you step outside and you can literally feel the silence
For some reason it is more noticable indoors... maybe a room amplifies it or you can move 4 feet over and find a 'null' spot.
Cats do this... find the 'peaceful' zones to sleep in... they too can since this

I am not entirely convinced of VLF. Mainly because everyone is waking up at 3:00 am.... in their respective time zones. Its not like a single event... where everyone wakes up at the same time. And if it is constant... then I should be up all night, which is not the case. I wake up at the specific time of 3:00am, but I know I am still getting REM sleep because I do not wake up again after. And the last time I checked, sound cannot move through a vacuum. So if it is coming from space, it wont be sound waves.
Unless we are being pulsed with VLF, at specific times, on specific time zones on earth... this doesn't explain the phenomena.
